[Luteinized cystic hyperplasia of the ovaries in normal pregnancy. Diagnostic and nosological problems].

The authors report a new case of luteinized hyperplastic cystic ovary in a pregnancy that was in every other respect normal. This syndrome of ovarian hyperstimulation is most often found in patients suffering from trophoblastic diseases or following iatrogenic accidents. It is exceptionally rare in a non-molar pregnancy. The comparison with the other form of ovarian hyperactivity that gives rise to a luteoma of pregnancy emphasizes the questions that have to be answered of the hormonal mechanism leading to maternal and fetal virilisation that complicate these two pseudo-tumours and how they are handed on from one generation to the other, and what the mechanisms is of placental HCG in this abnormal condition.

[Uncomplicated pregnancies following recovery from acute pregnancy-related hepatic steatosis].

The authors report the case of a patient with acute yellow atrophy of the liver who subsequently had two uncomplicated pregnancies bringing the total number to 8 cases already published in the literature. After reviewing the diagnostic criteria, they discuss the risk of recurrence, considering the course of the illness, clinical, histological, and physiopathological features. The present risk of recurrence of AYAL must be considered to be very low.

[Asymmetric uterine malformations with menstrual retention. Apropos of a malformation associating atresia of the cervical isthmus and a pseudo-unicornous uterus].

There is now more or less general agreement how to classify and how to work out the development of symmetrical malformations of the female genital tract. On the other hand, asymmetrical malformations, as well as abnormalities of the development of the cervix and the isthmus are only rarely written about in the literature. It has not yet been possible to draw up a system to display the physiopathology and the embryology of these malformations. We here report a rare case of atresia of the cervix and isthmus as well as a pseudo unicornous uterus. This case should take its place as a piece in the embryological puzzle helping to fill in the details which might one day solve this puzzle.
